UP 2632 and UP 8815 provide the power with UP 1370 catching a ride. The size of the newer units compared to the 50 year old GP40-2 is very apparent!

With the closure of Burnham in Denver, no major repairs can be done in Denver. More than likely, the unit is headed to the shops there for maintenance. Incidentally, this particularly GP40-2 was originally DRGW 3119. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The train is following another southbound, sitting between switches ahead on the main. The local is hanging out of the north end of the siding.

The train is currently stopped as a second train, a manifest, is stopped ahead of the local. They are both waiting on a northbound manifest that will take the siding.

Interestingly, the units are only four years apart in terms of their build dates. The SD70M was built in 2002 and the SD70ACe was built in 2006. This particular SD70ACe was one of the earliest to hit UPs roster. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Looks like it has suffered from engine overheat with some scared paint on the long hood which, unfortunately, has taken out quite a bit of the American flag as well.

Then, the train will make another reverse move (across a grade crossing) to connect the train in preparation for departure north.

UP 1943 was the diesel unit chosen to give an assist to UP 844 this year. A diesel engine is always added to help maintain track speed and offer some dynamics on the downhill stretches.
